Myostatin Propeptide Human, HEK

Source: HEK 293.Filtered colorless solution.GDF8 is a member of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family and the TGF-beta superfamily. This group of proteins is characterized by a polybasic proteolytic processing site which is cleaved to produce a mature protein containing seven conserved cysteine residues. The members of this family are regulators of cell growth and differentiation in both embryonic and adult tissues. This gene is thought to encode a secreted protein which negatively regulates skeletal muscle growth.Myostatin Propetide Human Recombinant produced in HEK cells is a single, glycosylated, polypeptide chain (Asn24-Arg266) containing a total of 253 amino acids, having a calculated molecular mass of 29.1kDa. Myostatin Propetide is fused to a 10 aa C-terminal His tag.
